Noorder Leidsevaart 52182 NA HillegomBuitengebied

Located on navigable water, this excellently maintained detached house (energy label A) sits on a spacious plot with a generous garage and private driveway! Between Hillegom and De Zilk, at the beginning of the Noorder Leidsevaart, lies this very well-kept detached family home with its own private jetty on the Leidsevaart. The house is situated on a beautiful plot of 553 m² and features a lovely, sunny backyard, a driveway with space for multiple cars, and a spacious garage. Over the years, the house has been carefully maintained, made sustainable with an eye to the future, and lived in with love. For instance, the floors, walls, and roof have been retrofitted with insulation, there is high-efficiency glazing, and the roof is equipped with solar panels. The house has been extended at the rear with large windows that ensure plenty of natural light. There is a modern open-plan kitchen and a separate, practical utility room. The home offers 4 bedrooms and more than enough storage space; there is a modern bathroom, and the overall finish of the property can be described as high-quality! It is also a pleasure to spend time outdoors. In the front garden, you look out over the canal with passing boats, or you can step into a boat yourself from your own private jetty and sail to Haarlem, Leiden, or the Kagerplassen, for example. The backyard is more than 16 meters deep and beautifully landscaped, featuring a veranda where you can enjoy the sun until late in the evening during the summer. To the side, the house features a wide driveway where you can park multiple cars, and of course, there is the spacious garage of approximately 50 m². Ideal for parking the car, storage, or perhaps you have a hobby? The location between the village center of Hillegom and De Zilk is particularly pleasant. You live here in a spacious, open, and slightly rural setting, yet with Hillegom train station within walking or cycling distance and a wide range of shops, restaurants, schools, and sports clubs within a short cycling distance. The Amsterdam Water Supply Dunes and the beach are also close by, and cities such as Leiden, Haarlem, and Amsterdam are reachable within half an hour. A personal note from the owner: I have lived here with great pleasure for over 50 years, but it is now time for the next step. It is a lovely house in a nice spot with plenty of sun and privacy in the garden. In the past, my own little boat was moored right outside the door, and we used to enjoy going out on the water. I hope the new owners enjoy living here just as much as I have. Excited?
